Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you have and fallen trees or any damaged trees from a storm or lightning, you should call a qualified tree surgeon. Untrained persons should never attempt to deal with a tree that has fallen because of all the objects that might be under or around it and any live power lines. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Taking Care Of Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact that they are generally considered as being solid and permanent, trees can end up being defenceless in adverse weather such as strong winds and storms. Powerful storms and extreme winds have been seen to annihilate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the ground, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times following strong winds have you heard about dislodged branches & storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. In addition to the danger and inconvenience it also may cause expensive restorations.

The hardest decision after a storm isn’t how to get rid of the trees that have definitely fallen down, that’s pretty much simple. The more challenging decision is whether or not some of the trees left standing are salvageable.

Some trees that have been partially harmed in the windstorm can pose a possible future risk and may well need to be cut down and took away to prevent placing property & people in danger in many months or even years ahead.

Some other trees can be preserved by being trimmed back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘cut off’ just like how a surgeon may take off a gangrenous leg. Others might need to be staked with guy ropes or supported with other supports until they are able to re-develop the root structure they need to stand on their own.

If a storm has caused trees to land on premises, our tree professionals can be relied upon to clear away the damaged trees efficiently, quickly and safely to allow the building crews access to the building to begin maintenance and repairs on the damaged buildings and power cables.

Different Kinds Of Storm Damage

All of these kinds of problem results in a varied diagnosis for the trees’ long term survival, but making a prognosis is a job best entrusted to a fully certified arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more likely to miss a small detail that might differentiate one decision from another, such as observing the splinters from a crown twist but failing to see the slight lean which reveals that the roots also snapped.

There are essentially 6 kinds of storm damage which a tree can not usually sustain:

• Blowovers – these are where the whole tree is uprooted.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree breaks above the soil, making the crown to come down or to lean violently whilst the lower section remains standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree tear beneath the soil, resulting in the tree pitching or swinging dramatically.
• Limb Failures – is where one or more limbs of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates sufficient to split, but stays standing. This happens most typically on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The whole crown essentially turns into a weathervane in a storm, turning to follow the wind in a way that the trunk can not.
• Lightening Strikes – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays standing, for now. Lightening hits have a number of secondary effects including massive water loss and opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin, so a tree hit by lightening is typically at a much greater danger to drop even if it survived the original windstorm.
